Bigger and Busier

As Carlton and I prepare for the arrival of our littlest guy, Robert is keeping us on our feet with our hands full. While that can be trying at times -- with my carrying around an extra ??lbs. -- we are having so much fun and find ourselves laughing at our 21-month-old all the time!

These boots were made for walking, but definitely for someone with (much!) bigger feet!

Robert still has a ways to go with his numbers and hasn't figured out that size 15 men's does not equate with size 7/8 little boy's.


The fireman/truck obsession is still alive and well. And I'd be lying if I said that we, as his parents, have no involvement in perpetuating it.

Robert surprises me everyday with the amount of energy he is suddenly able to summon once Daddy gets home. One afternoon Carlton dressed him up like a superhero and they did 20 laps around the house -- no kidding.

Some of our dear friends threw a shower for Alyson, Amy and me (pictured in the center) to celebrate the upcoming arrivals of our second babies. Southern Living missed an opportunity to document one of the greatest -- and most thoughtful -- backyard dinner parties I've ever been to. If they decide to do some professional catering on the side, I'll be sure to post it!
